Do you know how people sometimes say "If everybody stopped believing the dollar had value, it would stop having value, and you could paper your walls with it"?

I don't know if people have stopped thinking the dollar has value, but I suspect people are beginning to realize it's all made up, and we're starting to feel the deep cynicism that comes from believing your world is a farce. I think postmodern thought has probably contributed to this, due to its deconstructive and subjective bent.
